So what does it mean if pollsters on opposite ends of the spectrum agree?

HUCKABEE

Please show me how Public Policy Polling and Rasmussen can both come to the same conclusion unless there is a legit validity to what they are asking about.

I've long lauded the Rasmussen polls as the most accurate. They have more sophistication, better methods, and deeper/more well balanced penetration into the masses.

Last week they had Huck up 29% to Romney at 24% and Palin at 18%.

Tonight PPP puts Huck within the margin of error against OBAMA.

This is the seventh time PPP has taken this poll. It is the seventh straight time Huckabee has polled closest to Obama.

In a brief stop-over into the Ed Morrissey chat room at HotAir today, Duane Patterson and other chatters denounced Huck as irrelevant.

I was the first person to tell you that Huckabee will be the nominee for the GOP and I told it to you months ago. I might add that I was the first person to tell you Obama would be President, predicting that would happen in December of 2006.

Huckabee has done several things right since 2008, and made very few mistakes. His commentary on Fox is the textbook definition of "statesman." His ratings hit on Fox News Channel has made him the most watched cable news show every weekend.

His willingness to bring liberals on his show and debate them sometimes two to four liberals against himself shows tremendous stamina and strength. His sense of humor and his ability to finally brand his positions for himself, (and not through the lens of slime in Camp Romney that distorted his positions, fed them to NRO--who then repeated them without question,) are all playing to his strength. He also didn't implement a mandatory Health Care System in his state that allows for $50 abortions.

I know Hugh Hewitt opposes the Fair Tax message, but it is a less discriminatory tax than the present system. And in opposition to Obama arrogance, Huck's greatest strength--humility will be a winsome combination.

Duane and others all laughed at me when I told them Barack Obama would be President. They are laughing at me again now.

But maybe I know "we the people" a little bit better than they do. And all the signals I see developing point to an anti-tax candidate doing best. Huck is that candidate at present, and he's even better on other dozens of positions he's staked out on his television show.

Keep underestimating him people. Keep believing all the "smart people."

I put my faith in the ability of the American people...
